Before this the output of 'ps -aux | grep inetd' as user was: makisupa 3330 0.0 0.1 512 392 p0 R+ 8:45PM 0:00.00 grep inetd There was no output as root. Now there is no output as user and as root the output is: root 1895 0.0 0.0 348 228 p0 L+ 1:04PM 0:00.00 grep inetd Still getting FAM errors and same weirdness...starting to drive me nuts! Thanks everyone for your help... mak
